mini challenge season 9.jpg


Got questions about the ninth season of the RD MINI Challenge? Ask them here please.
 
Just a heads up. Entries will be decided by the activity in the MINI Friday events. So if you haven't raced in our popular club events yet, you still have a little bit of time to get active if you like to run in this series.
 
Sorry for the stupid question. I do not understand the post. A video of the minis? a championship?
We are working out the details and then we'll post the full announcement for you guys. So yes it will be a MINI Challenge League.

And yes you both have been regulars so don't worry at all :)

Edit: just seen your RDTCC signout so i have to retract the above statement.

RaceDepartment MINI Challenge Season 9
After a hiatus of over a year the popular MINI Challenge returns to RaceDepartment for a ninth season for a five round online championship on Saturday evenings. Thirty of the most committed pilots will make for a full one division series for single drivers.

The Car
The MINI John Cooper Works in the PC Simulator AUTOMOBILISTA by Reiza Studios closely simulates the car used in the MINI Challenge Brasil. A car which puts out 211 horsepower, only weighing 1150 kilogram and has no traction control but a low level of ABS. This guarantees for super close racing!

The calendar for this season will take drivers to five different locations.
  • Round 1 - Saturday 30/04, Guapore
  • Round 2 - Saturday 14/05, Londrina Long
  • Round 3 - Saturday 28/05, Ribeirao Preto 2012

This looks awesome. I notice the "Live Steward" in slot number 34. That sounds like a lot of fun with realtime penalties, full course yellow etc.

Wish I could sign up. Just checked my rota and I have to work 3 of the 5 events. One maybe two I could swap but 3..... All the best to those that enter. You'll enjoy it!
 
I would really like to join this league but I will need to check all the dates I will let you know as soon as possible if I can make it and could I ask you to re post the livery thread as it didn't seem to work and I have never done one myself so think it best i try to find someone to do it for me :thumbsup:

Thanks Bram, hope I get in, these cars are insanely fun (i had been missing out) as it's a league does that mean it won't be fixed setups? (Hope it is fixed lol)
